Is there any way to get Shelter/Insular work profile apps that are signsd by the developer rathee than F-Droid? - Lemmy.world

I am not a fan of F-Droid signing apps instead of the developer as it creates a third party that has to be trusted. If it is possible to get them from the official source without F-Droid signature it would be very nice.

For shelter there’s a fdroid repository signed by the dev themselves
You can use Obtainium to download them directly from GiHub, amd some other sources.
From my understanding, the fdroid process ensures the build is automated base on the source code provided. This prevents developer from sneaking in additional code in the build.

Welcome! I’d just flag rule 2 in the sidebar and that we ask ask folks to post questions in [email protected].

For your question, I use Obtainium to download releases directly from GitHub. You can also add the IzzyOnDroid repo to your F-Droid/Droid-ify to access a larger library of apps.
